Gregor Antonescu, a tycoon of Hungarian origin, arrives at the Greenwich Village apartment of his illegitimate son, Basil, for a business meeting to discuss a highly-profitable merger. After achieving apparent success, he finds everything collapsing around him and learns from Basil that a warrant is out for his arrest. Basil offers help, but Gregor acquires a conscience for the first time in his life and determines his own way out. A revival of this tense, psychological drama was seen to critical acclaim at the Duchess Theatre, London, in 2005, starring David Suchet as Gregor Antonescu.
